The Federal Employees' Compensation Act provides workers' compensation coverage to three million Federal and Postal workers around the
world for employment-related injuries and occupational diseases. The Division of Federal Employees' Compensation (DFEC) adjudicates new
claims for benefits and manages ongoing cases; pays medical expenses and compensation benefits to injured workers and survivors; and helps
injured employees return to work when they are medically able to do so.

The Seattle District Office is dedicated to the timely and accurate processing of Federal Workers' Compensation Claims in the states of:
Alaska, Idaho, Oregon, and Washington.

Note: Individuals injured on the job while employed by private companies or state and local government
agencies should contact their state workers' compensation board.
